This award is providing partial support for the 19th annual meeting of Partners and Working Groups involved with the Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) program, being held in Los Angeles, CA between July 19 and July 24, 2015. The GLOBE program is a worldwide community of students, teachers, scientists and citizens working to understand, sustain, and improve Earth's environment at local, regional and global scales. The mission of GLOBE is to promote the teaching and learning of science through authentic, hands-on student research, enhance environmental literacy and stewardship, and promote scientific discovery. GLOBE strives to expand the number and diversity of students engaged in STEM and pursuing scientific careers. Since its inception, GLOBE has trained more than 20,000 teachers representing ~27,000 schools around the world. The more than 12 million students who have participated in GLOBE have contributed over 126 million data measurements to the GLOBE database for use in student- and scientist-led research projects. The GLOBE annual meeting provides an essential venue to bring together the 134 U.S. Partners and 114 Partner Country Coordinators for strategic planning, program coordination, sharing of best practices, and piloting of new resources.The 19th annual GLOBE meeting, being organized by an international committee of scientists, GLOBE Partners, and educators, will focus on the following activities: 1) train participants on the use of selected GLOBE protocols for short- and long-term research projects; 2) train participants in the use of new data entry, data analysis, visualization and communication tools recently augmented on the GLOBE web site; 3) highlight new opportunities to engage larger communities in GLOBE through citizen science projects; 4) introduce Partners to new tools that enable GLOBE students to engage in environmental research and peer review; 5) assess the success after its first year of operation of a new governance structure for GLOBE (including new Working Groups and a U.S. Partner Forum); 6) identify and model best practices for using GLOBE resources to implement new standards for STEM, language arts, and math; 7) model best practices for engaging students in the end-to-end research process using the suite of GLOBE tools; and 8) introduce a pilot program to integrate technology that connects in real-time remote research sites through live interactive collaborations between teachers, students, and scientists. Keynote presentations will be given by scientists and 7 master teachers. In addition to the 130-150 Partners and Country Coordinators attending the meeting, a group of 40 students, 3 teachers, and 7 additional chaperones will engage in a 2-day intensive research study on Catalina Island, modeling GLOBE program research resources. Pre- and post-meeting evaluation of participants will document the near- and longer-term impacts of the annual meeting activities, as well as the extent to which the resources modeled duirng the meeting are disseminated back to the GLOBE communities being served by the Partners.

该奖项为2015年7月19日至7月24日在加利福尼亚州洛杉矶举行的参与全球学习和观察惠及环境(GLOBAL)计划的合作伙伴和工作组第19届年会提供部分支持。全球计划是一个由学生、教师、科学家和公民组成的世界性社区，致力于在地方、区域和全球范围内了解、维持和改善地球环境。GLOBAL的使命是通过真实的、亲身实践的学生研究促进科学的教学和学习，提高环境素养和管理能力，并促进科学发现。Global致力于扩大从事STEM和追求科学职业的学生的数量和多样性。自成立以来，Globe已培训了20,000多名教师，代表世界各地的27,000所学校。参加GLOBE项目的1200多万名学生向GLOBE数据库贡献了超过1.26亿个数据测量数据，用于学生和科学家领导的研究项目。全球年度会议为134个美国合作伙伴和114个伙伴国家协调员提供了一个重要的场所，以进行战略规划、项目协调、分享最佳做法和试行新资源。第19次全球年度会议由一个由科学家、全球合作伙伴和教育工作者组成的国际委员会组织，将侧重于以下活动：1)培训参与者使用选定的全球协议进行短期和长期研究项目；2)培训参与者使用最近在全球网站上扩充的新数据输入、数据分析、可视化和通信工具；3)强调通过公民科学项目让更大的社区参与全球的新机会；4)向合作伙伴介绍使全球学生能够参与环境研究和同行审查的新工具；5)评估全球新治理结构运行一年后的成功(包括新的工作组和美国合作伙伴论坛)；6)确定和示范利用全球资源实施STEM、语言艺术和数学的新标准的最佳实践；7)使用全球工具套装让学生参与端到端研究过程的最佳实践模式；以及8)引入一项试点计划，通过教师、学生和科学家之间的现场互动协作，整合连接实时远程研究站点的技术。主旨演讲将由科学家和7位大师老师主讲。除了参加会议的130-150名合作伙伴和国家协调员外，由40名学生、3名教师和7名额外监护人组成的小组将在卡塔利纳岛进行为期2天的密集研究，模拟全球计划的研究资源。对与会者的会前和会后评估将记录年度会议活动的短期和长期影响，以及会议期间模拟的资源在多大程度上传播回合作伙伴所服务的全球社区。
